Chapter 11:
Running Away
Riku's POV
I growled at the older Viviblix, my fangs barred. "What did you do to them!?" I demanded, claws now baring my hands in a fighting stance.
He just chuckled. "As you can see…" He snapped his fingers and warped Namine and Axel to us. Both had there hands tied and had gags in. Namine was shaking with fear, were as Axel was thrashing trying to get out glaring at Xemnas. "I tied them up."
"Axel!" Roxas cried from behind me.
"N-Namine!" I heard Demyx's restrained voice. Zexion's holding him back?
That's about the time I noticed that Axel was trying to use his fire but couldn't. "What'd you do to them!?"
He smirked, god I wish I could slap it off, but I knew I couldn't. The only hope of us getting out of here now would be to catch him off guard, which was nearly impossible… "I drained their powers. As a matter as a fact…" He turned to Axel. "You might want to stop Fire Boy or you'll extort yourself, which would kill you…" He now turned to where I guess Roxas is. "Though I do admit it'd be amusing to see your lover's reaction." I heard a chocked sob from Roxas then a muffled cry. Axel stopped moving and just sagged himself.
"How dare you!" Leon growled and leaped towards Xemnas Gunblade in hand.
"No don't-!" I went to warn but it was too late. Xemnas had blocked the attack with a wave of his hand. Leon was shocked with an electric bolt, making him scream in pain. Leon fell to the ground where Sora and Cloud quickly rushed over.
Xemnas let out a dark chuckle. "Pathetic. However, I must thank you for returning our pet and bringing me the other Keyblader, Hunter." I let out another deep growl. He is not getting my mate, I'll gut him!
"This guy's a creep." I heard Xion whisper next to me.
Zexion came to stand a little in front of me. "You don't know half of it." He commented to Xion before summoning his Lexicon. "Shall we try Riku?"
I nodded I want to bust his skull out. "Yeah let's do it." Zexion gave a nod, and Xion stepped forward. If I could think of anything other then my anger then I'd have to wonder. What's a Neko going to do?
Sora's POV
What are they doing, didn't they see what happened to Leon!? "Sora let's get Leon out of the way." Cloud said snapping me out of my thoughts. I nodded and helped him get Leon away from whatever was about to happen. "Roxas, Demyx, get back now!" He barked the order to the two stunned blondes, who both complied numbly.
I checked them both but didn't get a response from either, but I can understand. Roxas' lover was captured and tied up, and mine and Demyx's are about to fight to get him back. I turned to look on just as Riku and Xion jumped at Xemnas, while Zexion was mumbling in a language I didn't know under his breath.
I feared for Riku as he leaps towards Xemnas, and I closed my eyes tight not wanting to see my lover get hurt like my uncle has. I waited for his scream of pain, it happened a second later, but to my surprise it wasn't my lover who screamed. I opened my eyes to see Xemnas on his knees.
Riku kicked his head and he fell with an 'oomph!', Riku smirked and turned to Zexion. "Nice new spell."
Zexion nodded smiling. "I thought I needed some new ones and when I found a magica decreaser… Well… How could I resist?" He finished off and went to Demyx in a hurry.
Riku then turned to me and smiled, and I smiled back, but I stayed holding Roxas so he wouldn't rush over to Axel. He nodded and turned to Xion. "Help me untie Axel and Namine?" He asked
Xion smiled and nodded, letting her claws out. "Of course."
As they went to untie the two I noticed a movement in the corner of my eyes. I turned to see Xemnas getting up; he noticed my gaze and turned to me smirking. I went to yell, but he whispered something and I couldn't speak. I tried to move Roxas to get him to notice, but he had fainted at some point.
I looked on ready to cry as Xemnas summoned a dark orb and approached Riku, Xion, Axel, and Namine.
That's when I noticed that Xion's ear twitched, and she slowly stopped, finishing with Namine's ropes she held onto her and kept her in place.
I saw Namine's confused face…
And I have to say I'm confused too…
Xion's POV
I placed my hands onto the blonde girls shoulder… I think she's 'Namine'? "Don't move." I whispered softly to her.
She looked at me confused and was ready to ask me something, but I shushed her. I looked over to Riku, who was still cutting Axel's ropes. So he hasn't noticed?… Then it's up to me I guess…
I straightened and took one hand off of her shoulder, and held it by my side… Wait for it… Wait… Now! "Riku look out!" I summoned my Keyblade and knocked Xemnas down, but not for long.
He got up quickly. "You're a Keyblader?!" He said shocked.
I growled. "So? What of it?!"
That's when I heard Zexion's voice in my head. 'We need to leave now!'
'Why?'
'I don't know why but he's obsessed with Keybladers. That's why he wants Sora and Roxas, and now probably you too…'
My eyes widened and I gulped. "Riku get the others and run."
"No." He said. "I'm not leaving you here." He finished untying Axel. "Axel go to Roxas he needs you." The redhead went to object. "Now Axel!" Riku growled.
And after a minute the redhead nodded. "Right." He went to get Roxas from Sora's arms.
Sora stood. "… Riku…"
"Go Sora, run."
Sora stepped back. "I-"
"You all are going nowhere!" Xemnas stood, and I raised my Keyblade again. I was ready to strike until he grabbed my wrist. "I won't let you!"
"Let. Her. Go!" Riku attacked Xemnas' neck.
"Ahhhh! You fucking leach!" He turned and knocked Riku off. "Enough!" He called the darkness and captured Riku in a prison.
"R-Riku!" Sora cried.
My ears fell at the pain in his voice. I turned to them. "You guys leave now!" I yelled, and turned to be met with a smirk.
"They can try." Xemnas chuckled and put me in a prison too. "But soon all Monsters will bow to me. I'll send some of my members after them, and once their back, I'll…" His smirk widened. "Well let's just say they'll beg to even kiss my boots, especially those traders."
I growled. "You won't get away with this!"
He let out a dark chuckle. "I already have."
